Microcracking of concrete under compression and its influence on tensile strength
Abstract A new parameter representing damage of concrete due to compressive stresses is investigated. Very important tensile strength losses are obtained after compressive loading over 40% of the compressive strength. Microcracking of concrete takes place under such load leading to tensile strength losses depending also on time under load, water content and type of aggregate. Under maximum compressive load a tensile strength reduction of about 50% is obtained.
